Battle of the Compact MPVs (Ertiga, APV, Avanza, Mobilio, etc)

[keto]

simply bcoz we filipinos wants to make konting yabang lang naman kapag di pang taxi ang car ... our mentality is likely the same as Chinese when it comes to car brand. My supplier in China said if you wanna do business with Chinese in China, you must drink a lot to closed the deal, your car must be S class, BMW 7 series, high end sports car etc.. to be stand out from the rest otherwise, literally sa kankongan ka na lang daw magnegosyo. hehe

Sadly, this is true sir. I'm really thankful that I learned to look beyond status symbols early on in life. If not, malamang sobrang baon na ako sa utang ngayon hehe


BTT: Only car I personally driven among the choices was the Avanza. My two cents is if your main reason in getting a MPV is to get people from point A to B, it is sufficient.

true.
OT din. if you notice halos walang entry level ng cars on the road. Singaporeans prefer to buy mid/high end European car instead. super mahal ang pagkuha ng car registration. Ang fees ay halos kasing halaga na ito ng brandnew car. SG gov't discourage Singaporeans to buy private cars instead take public transpo

Pag bumili ka ng brand new na avanza at ginawa mong taxi e automatic na void ang warranty. (Base sa nabasa ko). So it mean hindi talaga created as taxi. Ibig sabihin ba nito mga sir at maam e duda ang toyota sa kalidad ng car if taxi manakbo ang car nila.??

Doon pala sa topic ko. Na close nanaman. Hehe.. Hindi ko nanaman napag tangol ang sarili ko. Hehe.. Pero ok lang napikon ko naman ang mga car expert kuno. Haha..

di ko sure kung san ko nabasa pero parang 1 yr na lang ata yung warranty ng sasakyan once na gawin mong taxi yung sasakyan nila instead na 3 yrs. di naman sila duda, pero ang reason ata nila dyan is di na under normal usage yung sasakyan once na ginawang PUV.

I think the reason they void the warranty is because normally hindi sa casa dinadala for service yung mga purchased units na ginagawang taxi. At least that's what the SA told me. I guess kung religiously ipapa service nila sa casa at required intervals, hindi dapat ma vovoid. But then again, the cost will be high and baka hindi na kumita yung operator kung ipapa casa maintained nya yung taxi niya.

Almost all of us take passion with our rides. Cars we bought with hard earned money. It is then but normal that you squeeze every ounce of pride you get from your ride. . .

BTT : Anu nga ba topic?

Yung warranty naman kasi ng vehicle is X years or Y km, whichever comes first. If ginawang taxi, posible na in 1 year ma-reach na yung Y km limit kaya umigsi yung warranty period. So reason is not because it was used as taxi per se.

Posible nga na hindi na nornal use ang car. Iisa ang taxi e dalawa ang driver palitan. Mabuti pa ang driver nag papa hinga.

Pero if alam ng toyota na ganun ang use ng most the car nila e bakit hindi na lang sila mag labas ng specially made na taxi model.. Diba? Even mahal basta warranty and sa ganung setup ginawa ang car.

Let's get back to topic please and avoid replying to out of topic questions. Thanks!
My vote goes to the ertiga because it is what fits my budget, quite practical, and tested na rin naman naming ang Suzuki. Avanza has too simple design, APV is from what I've heard a gas guzzler, while I believe I cannot pay the "prestige" of a Honda.
